## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 17 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 0.45.1
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The flagged API credential is loaded from the user's own configuration, and its optional destination is also user-configured. The related request processes notes or images for a user-invoked Linear ticket workflow; no automatic redirection or exfiltration was identified.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 94.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-04T03:55:48.081Z

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified.

- **Trigger:** The CLI performs AI-assisted ticket creation when the user runs the relevant Linear create mode.

- **Impact:** The reviewed flow supports the requested ticket creation feature; no automatic credential redirection or unrelated collection was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T03:57:07.662Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** It uses the configured OpenAI API key and optional user-configured base URL to process the supplied notes or images.

- **Rationale:** The flagged API credential is loaded from the user's own configuration, and its optional destination is also user-configured. The related request processes notes or images for a user-invoked Linear ticket workflow; no automatic redirection or exfiltration was identified.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 94.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The package exposes dist/index.js as its CLI and main entrypoint; it has no install lifecycle script., The OpenAI client reads its API key and optional base URL from the user's ~/.pmate/config.yaml., The notes and images sent to the OpenAI client are inputs to Linear ticket creation., The CLI runs main() only when invoked as the main module.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @pmate/cli@0.45.1.

- Review the evidence and your use of @pmate/cli@0.45.1 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
